Joie De Vivre Handshakes lyrics

This whole week's been wasted
on back roads and gasoline
this distance doesn't make things easier
these friendships don't seem to help me

I let you follow far too close
we were younger
we never wanted to be alone
with our bad luck
and foreign lines
we'll fill the streets again

and if i take this corner
I'll take the whole god damned street back
I heard living like this can take
can take years off your life
(you've got to let me go)

if you could make me fine
you could make me alright
(got to let me go)

I always found it hard to recognize
your face in the morning
in the cold
in the winter
in my home
I can't even sleep without listening

I can't celebrate changed lives
with everybody else
